King?

Ray
offers a complete entertainment package combining his first
class live singing performance with his skills as a top
party DJ. Depending on the requirements of your event or
occasion, if you like he can do one or two sets of singing
and then keep your guests entertained and enjoying
themselves grooving on the dance for the rest of the evening
- the perfect solution without the complications of having
to have an additional DJ plus all that unsightly extra
equipment.
And while we are on the
subject of equipment, Ray uses only the latest Yamaha and
Shure finest quality gear - no scruffy equipment,
muffled PA or an inability to understand what is being said
or sung!
If a touch of class
is what's required, then look no further than Ray Godwin
and his Rat Pack tribute! Wearing Black Tie, Ray will
ensure that guests of all ages enjoy the classic all
time favourite songs of Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis
Junior and Dean Martin (plus guests!). Take a listen to
the demo songs below and bring a piece of the silver
screen or the West End to your function for a lot less
than you might think!

your default media player, right click and "save target"

You can guarantee a
successful event by combining Ray's vocal talents with
his skills as a top party DJ. It's far better to have
only one experienced first class entertainer to deal all
your entertainment requirements on the night. And you
won't need to put up with two sets of PA and disco
equipment cluttering up the venue.
If you are simply
having a family get together at home or throwing a huge
party at the town hall, Ray will tailor a package to
suit your event and your budget.
As for weddings, Ray
will customise the afternoon and or evenings
entertainment to meet all your hopes and aspirations -

you can have one of the best voices in the business sing
it live for you? Whether you simply need a singer for
one set or the whole package from the Wedding March to
the last dance, Ray will offer advice and plan the
entertainment with you and your partner to your exact
specifications. Give your Groom and Chief Bridesmaid one
less thing to worry about on the big day, knowing that
the all the entertainment is in experienced and safe
hands.

modern theme, Ray will work with you to ensure that your
